Abstract
En años recientes, el Perú ha recibido más de un millón de migrantes venezolanos,
convirtiéndose en el segundo destino de esta población. Distritos como San Martín de Porres,
han experimentado dificultades para la integración migratoria debido a la percepción negativa
existente entre la población de acogida. Por ello, esta investigación tiene como objetivo
general determinar la manera en la que se construye la percepción negativa sobre los
migrantes venezolanos, en los residentes de la urbanización Los Jazmines del Naranjal del
distrito de San Martín de Porres. Para ello, se establecieron dos objetivos específicos: conocer
las características de la percepción negativa de los migrantes venezolanos presente en los
residentes de la urbanización, e identificar los factores que influyen en su construcción. A
nivel teórico, el estudio aborda categorías como percepción en torno a migrantes, contexto
local, relaciones entre comunidad migrante y de acogida, y medios y espacios de
comunicación. Para el recojo de información, se aplicaron entrevistas semi estructuradas y se
realizó una revisión documentaria. Se concluyó que la percepción negativa sobre los
migrantes venezolanos se construye a partir de diversos factores como la influencia de los
medios, los cuales asocian a los venezolanos con actos delictivos, informalidad y caos; la
disputa por el acceso a oportunidades laborales; y el limitado conocimiento y comprensión
entre comunidades. Frente a ello, se propone el proyecto “Más iguales que diferentes”, cuyo
objetivo específico es promover la percepción positiva en torno a los migrantes venezolanos
de la urbanización mencionada. Para lograrlo, se planteó tres resultados esperados: fomentar
una imagen libre de prejuicios, concientizar sobre la igualdad de derechos y oportunidades, y
que la comunidad migrante y de acogida cuenten con espacios de encuentro para mantener la
comunicación y el respeto. En ese sentido, se crearon diversas actividades participativas y
entretenidas que involucraban a ambas comunidades.
In the last years, Peru has received more than a million Venezuelan migrants, becoming the second main destination for Venezuelan newcomers. Districts with the largest Venezuelan population, such as San Martín de Porres, have experienced challenges in their migratory integration, mainly due to the negative perception that they have among the host population. Therefore, the objective of this research is to determine the way in which the negative perception of Venezuelan migrants is built among the residents of the locality “Los Jazmines del Naranjal”. Based on this, we have settled two specific objectives: To know the characteristics of the negative perception of Venezuelan migrants present among the residents of this locality, and to identify the factors that influence the building of said negative perception. The study addresses categories such as perception of migrants, local context, relations between the migrant and host community, and the media and spaces of communication. To collect this information, semi-structured interviews with different stakeholders were held and documentary reviews took place. It is concluded that the negative perception of Venezuelan migrants from the residents of the Los Jazmines del Naranjal is built from various factors such as the influence of media that associates Venezuelans with criminal acts, informality and chaos; the dispute over access to job opportunities; and the limited knowledge and understanding between communities. Based on this, the project “Más Iguales Que Diferentes” is proposed with the specific objective of promoting a positive perception of Venezuelan migrants in the mentioned locality. Three expected results are proposed: Promote an image free of prejudice; raise awareness about equal rights and opportunities; and that the migrant and host community have meeting spaces to maintain communication and respect between both of them. In this sense, various participatory and entertaining activities that involve both communities were created.
